I've contacted Hornady several times for such a bullet in 400gr spitzer/.458 with the RP nose, similar to their 286gr in 9.3 mm.

No response yet! I'm thinking they believe their 350gr RN and FP are adequate. But they are too short and blunt for adequate effect on large game beyond 200 - 250 yards. I would like to see something from Hornady, as the largest supplier in these parts import a lot from Hornady - in fact more than from any other US bullet manufacturer. In any shop one can find Hornady bullets. Barnes would be second. But the TSX's and Noslers are becoming almost prohibitive in costs for the average handloader!
